This market asks whether Scotiabank, the public name for Bank of Nova Scotia, will be deemed to have failed before the end of 2026. Because the bank is one of Canada’s major systemically important lenders, the question is less about ordinary earnings volatility and more about an extreme regulatory or resolution event.
The resolution window runs from market creation through December 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET. The market will resolve to Yes only if Scotiabank is formally declared insolvent or non-viable, loses its banking authorization, enters liquidation or a regulator-led wind-down, or is taken into a resolution process that wipes out or subordinates equity and hands effective control to officials. It can also resolve Yes if the bank publicly defaults on a payment obligation and that default is formally recognized by the relevant regulator or resolution authority, so readers should pay attention to official actions rather than rumors or market chatter.
A large bank can look stable right up until a severe capital, liquidity, or regulatory problem forces intervention, which is why this market focuses on the narrow definition of “failure” laid out in the rules. Scotiabank is a major Canadian institution, so a failure event would be legally and financially significant, but the threshold here is much higher than a bad quarter or a falling share price. The disagreement being priced is whether any official resolution-style event could happen before the deadline, not whether the bank will simply face stress.
The biggest price movers would be official disclosures from Scotiabank, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions, the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, or any court or government resolution authority showing insolvency, non-viability, or a forced wind-down. Large capital actions, emergency intervention, or a public statement that changes the bank’s status under its regulatory framework would matter far more than ordinary news about profits, loan losses, or executive changes. Because the definition includes formal default and resolution tools such as a bridge bank, any announcement touching those mechanisms would be especially important.

View marketThe current market price implies roughly a 7% chance for the leading outcome, based on live Polymarket pricing. That number is not a prediction from PredictionNinja and it is not a guarantee; it is the current crowd-priced view of the market and can change quickly when new information appears.
Before the market resolves, check the exact status of Scotiabank under its primary regulator and whether any official filing, order, or public notice says the bank has been declared insolvent, placed into resolution, or had its license revoked. The source of truth is the formal action itself, not secondary commentary or temporary trading pressure, and the event must occur by the stated deadline of December 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET. One ambiguity to watch is that the description is broad: a routine bailout, a capital raise, or a temporary support facility would not automatically count unless it fits one of the listed failure conditions.

This market is currently listed with an end date of Dec 31, 2026. Market timelines can change if the underlying event is postponed, rescheduled, or resolved early.
This market will resolve to “Yes” if the listed bank fails between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.” For the purposes of this market, the listed bank will be considered to have “failed” if any of the following occurs under the bank’s applicable legal or regulatory framework, within the listed date range: - The listed bank’s primary banking regulator formally declares the institution insolvent or non-viable, or withdraws or revokes the bank’s license or authorization, and such determination initiates or directly results in resolution, liquidation, wind-down, or transfer actions. - The listed bank enters a court-ordered liquidation, statutory resolution regime, or regulator-mandated wind-down, including the use of resolution tools such as bail-ins, forced asset transfers, or the establishment of a bridge bank. - A government or resolution authority intervenes in a manner that wipes out or subordinates existing equity of the listed bank and transfers effective control of the bank to the state or a designated resolution authority, with continued operations dependent on official intervention. - The listed bank publicly defaults on a payment obligation, including derivatives margin, repo, or physical commodity delivery, and such default is formally acknowledged by the bank’s primary regulator or resolution authority and directly results in the initiation of resolution, liquidation, license withdrawal, or regulator-mandated transfer of the bank. - The listed bank is subject to a compulsory merger, acquisition, or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets and liabilities ordered or directed by its primary banking regulator or resolution authority due to the bank’s financial condition or to prevent failure, regardless of whether a formal insolvency declaration or immediate equity wipeout is publicly announced at the time of transfer. If there is a potential failure of the listed bank within this market’s date range and a qualifying regulatory or court action has occurred but has not yet been fully published by the relevant authority, this market may remain open until April 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET to allow for confirmation. If no qualifying failure is confirmed by that date, this market will resolve to “No.” The primary resolution source for this market will be official statements, filings, or actions by the listed bank’s primary banking regulator or resolution authority; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
Probability signal
The current price implies a lower-probability outcome, which can make the market more sensitive to surprise news.
Liquidity context
Liquidity is present but not especially deep, so spreads and order-book movement still matter.
Spread
The bid-ask spread is wider, so the headline probability may be less precise than it looks.
Recent movement
The 24h move is modest, suggesting the market has not repriced dramatically in the latest feed.
The current displayed probability is 7%, based on the latest normalized Polymarket data available to PredictionNinja.
The rules and resolution criteria are pulled from the market description provided by Polymarket when available.
